Katherine Street (Sandton)

On Monday, 13 June, traffic lanes and traffic accommodation between Westbrook Drive and Liberty Drive are scheduled to be re-aligned to allow for asphalt paving and kerb laying between these sections.

Motorists are requested not to speed between these intersections, and to use the STOP signs accordingly.

Motorists can also expect:

Contra-flow deviation from Amalinda Street to Westbrook Drive.

Liberty Drive going into Barloworld has been closed, the traffic lights are flashing red and STOP signs have been placed on the traffic light poles. Motorists are urged to obey these signs and not to speed when crossing the intersection.

Watch out for construction vehicles entering/exiting Katherine between Pongola Crescent and Westbrooke Drive.

Outsource pointsmen on Katherine

Outsource pointsmen will be deployed to facilitate traffic flow between 06:00 and 08:30 and between 15:30 and 17:30 at:

The intersection of Katherine Street and Harris Road.

The intersection of Katherine Street and Liberty Drive.

Marlboro Drive (Sandton)

All lanes on Marlboro Drive are now open, plus there are now 3 right-turning lanes coming from Katherine, and an extra new fast lane on Marlboro eastbound to the M1. Afternoon peak-hour traffic flow towards the M1 on-ramps should thus be much smoother.

Between 07:00 and 08:30, JMPD Traffic Officers will assist with traffic flow at the intersections of Marlboro Drive and the M1 Highway south and north ramps.
